Can you imagine being uprooted and then dropped into a foreign culture not knowing the language or customs? Now we have to educate and assimilate them. I don't care if none of them are terrorists. Some of them will become terrorists.
You mean the way they've assimilated them in Europe? Good luck with that.
Is Obama setting the stage to ensure an epic FAIL of the next President be it Trump or Hillary?
The next President is going to face a myriad of problems.
The news hasn't talked about this in months but we still have an unsecure Southern border that has been seeing an uptick in illegals swarming through since the word got out that Trump actually has a chance to win.
More and more barely vetted muslims from dangerous areas of the world where many chant death to America in their prayers.
A race war in our cities where riots ensue if a cop shoots a black guy whether he deserved it or not.
Obama signed away control of the internet to a foreign group which took affect Saturday night. Why?
I'm sure I missed some major things that Obama has done to fundamentally change America and knock it off its perch of exceptionalism.
Bringing in thousands of people who are so opposed to our way of life is not going to end well.
Yeah - I said this awhile ago.
It is going to be a political fun house full of trap doors and warpy mirrors.
The administration admitted a total of 12,587 Syrian refugees during the just-ended fiscal year, exceeding the target President Obama declared last fall by 2,587 (20.5 percent).
Of the 12,587, the vast majority are Sunni Muslims – 12,363 (98.2 percent) – while another 103 are identified in State Department Refugee Processing Center data simply as Muslims and a further 20 as Shi’a Muslims.
Sixty-eight of the 12,587 Syrian refugees (0.5 percent) are Christians. They comprise 16 Catholics, eight Orthodox, five Protestants, four Jehovah’s Witnesses, one Greek Orthodox, and 34 refugees self-identified simply as Christians.
...
When the conflict began in 2011, an estimated 10 percent of the Syrian population (1.5-1.7 million) was Christian and 74 percent was Sunni Muslim.
In contrast, Christians accounted for just half of one percent of the refugees resettled in the United States in FY 2016, while Sunnis accounted for 98.2 percent.
Obama, the "Christian", has focused heavily on bringing Muslims here. Does anyone believe he is really a Christian?
He exceeded the original plan of 10,000 by over 20%. I guess he has been doing more than playing golf.
You are scared of Muslims. I get that. But you can assuage you fears by getting a license to conceal carry.
I can guess, how about you? Looks like post #13 explains it.
I don't think Barack Obama sounds like John, Matthew, Luke or Paul. Plus, no Christian would say the sound of Islamic prayer is the sweetest sound. Not a chance!
Those are boring names and outdated. You know, like a slice of white bread.
I've been asking for months how letting middle eastern refugees into the country benefits americans and I have never received a response. There is a non-zero danger in letting them in but zero benefit.
What percentage of the applicants where Christians and how many were rejected by US? That is really the only thing that matters.
PS. The applicants are referred to US by United Nations High Commissioner and nearly 70% have been kids. I am not sure that a religious test would be a good idea.
Americans are what matters. Send all the refugees back and quit allowing then or anyone to come into this country until Americans are taken care of.
Yep, Families get broken apart and people die. Thats what happens when the President of the United States decides he wants to depose the president of your country, and back Rebels who many happen to be Al Queda, and ISIS
I am a Christian, but I don't know anyone who has changed their name because of it.
Were you baptized at birth?
Do you DENY that when people become Muslims that they DON'T change their name to a Muslim name?
I think you are being obtuse, again.

no need to be so scared, we have been accepting refugees from war torn countries for many many years.
